Silvio Rodrguez DomnguezSilvio Rodrguez Domnguez is a Cuban musician, and a leader of the nueva trova movement. He is known for his highly symbolic lyrics. Many of his songs have become classics in Latin-American music, such as Playa Giron and La Maza. Silvio was born on November 29, 1946 in San Antonio de los Baos, a fertile valley in Havana known for its tobacco crop. He was raised in a family of poor farmers. His grandfather, a tobacco farmer, knew Jos Mart. His father, Vctor Dagoberto Rodrguez Ortega, was a farmer who supported socialist causes. His mother, Argelia Domnguez Len, was a hairdresser. On many occasions Silvio has spoke how his love of music was developed by his mother, who would pass the time by singing boleros and songs from Santiago. Although Silvio had an uncle that played the bass, his mother had the far greater influence. Later, his mother has collaborated with Silvio on a few musical works. External links Rodrguez,Silvio
